Abstract: The conventional method of limiting the number of
receiving apparatus has a problem that if the limited number
of appliances is reduced to limit distribution to unspecified
appliances outside a home, distribution to appliances in the
home is limited unnecessarily largely, and that if the limited
number of appliances is increased, distribution to appliances
outside the home cannot be sufficiently limited. At least one
receiving apparatus, e.g., digital television sets and PCs,
connected to a network and capable of receiving and using
predetermined data, and a transmitting apparatus, e.g., an
AV server for transmitting the data to the receiving apparatus
via the network are provided. Use of the data on the network
is managed on the basis of the transmission time required for
transmission of predetermined information between the
transmitting apparatus and the receiving apparatus.

IPC: F02N11/08

Abstract: The control device (100) includes a control unit (110) such as a microcontroller with an ON output for outputting a control signal to the switch in response to a start command to start the starter. It also has a control holder (120) between the control unit and the switch for temporarily storing the control signal after it has been output by the control unit. A feedback coupling unit (130) feeds back a current state of the holder to the control unit. After a temporary interruption in its supply voltage and thus a resulting temporary switching off of the control unit, the control unit is reactivated and is adapted to decide to again take up control of the switch over the holder when two conditions are satisfied. The first condition is that the switch, at the time of the decision, is still controlled by the temporarily stored control signal from before the interruption. The second condition is that the temporarily stored signal from before the interruption is still stored after the interruption. Independent claims also cover a method of controlling the switch.

Abstract: In the production of finely-dispersed crystalline propellants, explosives and/or oxidants by precipitation from solution using an anti-solvent in a nozzle system, the particle size of the crystals thus obtained is adjusted by varying the angle (alpha ) between the channel (2) used to introduce the solution and the channel (3) used to introduce the antisolvent. Production of finely-dispersed crystalline propellants, explosives and/or oxidants involves contacting a solvent solution of the material in a nozzle with an anti-solvent which is at least partially miscible with the solution solvent and in which the material is non- or only slightly-soluble so as to precipitate the material as fine crystals which are then separated from the solvent and/or antisolvent, the solution being introduced in at least one channel (2) of a multi- component mixing nozzle (1a, 1b) and the anti-solvent being introduced in a second channel (3) which is at a finite angle (alpha ) to channel (2) while the precipitated crystals, together with the solvent and anti-solvent, are removed via a third channel (4) formed by the intersection of channels (2) and (3), the novel feature being that the particle size of the crystals thus obtained is adjusted by varying the angle (alpha ).
